The Hate U Give

Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves be- tween two worlds: the poor neighborhood she lives in and the suburban prep school she attends. That uneasy balance is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend by a police officer. Khalil was unarmed, and soon his death is a national headline. Some call him a thug. Others take to the streets in Khalil's name. Everyone wants to know what really went down that night. Only one person can answer that. But what Starr says could up ending her community — and endanger her life.
